I did not ask for and do not want Armor
I have been using Netgear routers for a long time, but my most recent purchase of a Nighthawk RAXE300 apparently came with and installed "Armor". I did not ask for this, and I do not want it. It is preventing me from accessing web pages that I need to access, and frankly it is none of Netgear's business to get in my way. I can see from other postings that it can be disabled with the "app", but the app does not work on my iphone. I can not and will not upgrade the phone just to disable an feature on the router that I did not ask for in the first place. So how do I get rid of this exceptionally intrusive bug from my router? This is how companies lose loyal customers.

Not receiving SMS code for circle
Hi, I have an R7000 router with Circle enabled. I uninstalled my Circle App from my phone and now, I don’t receive the code by sms to connect again. The official support is now paying so I can’t ask them. Any community manager or Netgear employee could help me to check the phone number and receive this sms? Or anyway to reset everything without the app? Thanks in advance. Arnaud

I went ahead and factory reset the router using all defaults settings and still the same problem.

Cannot get Passcode to use on another device Does not work when I am connected to my mobile network. I am running the latest version of the firmware V1.4.4.94_1.3.56 Thanks
